Michael Curry, Ph.D., and Jerald Dumas, Ph.D., faculty members in the Joint School of Nanoscience and Nanoengineering (JSNN), will primarily lead NSF BRIDGE’s workforce development component, while contributing their expertise in sustainable biomanufacturing and biorenewable materials.
Nooshin KianvashRad credits UNC Greensboro with helping her to better recognize herself. The Joint School of Nanoscience and Nanoengineering (JSNN) has shown her that she is indeed a leader, one whose confidence and skills continue to grow every day with each new challenge – whether pursuing better cancer outcomes in the lab,… Continue reading…
Joy, enthusiasm, energy — this is what emanates from even a brief interaction with Dennis LaJeunesse, longtime nanoscience professor at the Joint School of Nanoscience and Nanoengineering (JSNN). As he concludes a 26-year career at the University, he seems thrilled to mentor JSNN graduate students, support innovative research, and collaborate with colleagues as if it… Continue reading…
Assistant professor of nanoscience Kerui Wu has received a grant from NCInnovation to advance his work on targeted treatments for inflammation with fewer harsh side effects. Many chronic diseases—like arthritis, heart disease, and autoimmune disorders—are driven by inflammation deep inside the body. But today’s anti-inflammatory drugs often affect the whole system, leading to side effects… Continue reading…
The Joint School of Nanoscience and Nanoengineering at UNC Greensboro welcomed three new nanoscience faculty this fall, all of whom are first-time professors with unique research expertise. Whether building biological computers to progress medical diagnosis, creating computational devices to better fight cancer, or improving materials to make AI more efficient,… Continue reading…
